House GOP August Plan: Hate on Washington
Riva Litman, the spokeswoman for Republican Conference Chairwoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington, said it is the job of the House Republican Conference to equip members with the tools and resources they need to take our message to all corners of this country.
Thats why, in anticipation of the upcoming August recess, weve provided offices with a thorough and comprehensive planning kit complete with suggested events, best practices and talking points, Litman said. She noted that a second packet, complete with updated talking points, would be on its way to members soon.
To get the conversation rolling in the right direction, the playbook suggests planting questions: Prepare a few questions in advance in case the conversation slowly starts.
Invite at least 3-4 people with whom the member already has an established relationship, the memo instructs. This will strengthen the conversation and take it in a direction that is most beneficial to the members goal.
And theres also the Emergency Town Hall: Stopping Government Abuse.
But whatever you do, just dont remind voters you are part of that government.

When I first started reading this, I thought it was a satire from the Onion. But after doing a few Google searches, I discovered that it's "real".
Obstructionist Republicans message is, "Elect me and I will obstruct".
That's it. Nothing else.
